I think it is fantastic that a public transportation system is doing something to encourage people to leave their cars at home and use the public system. The MD/DC Metro system charges extra a rush hour. Never could figure that one out. Guess that is why I'm so happy to be out here on the "Left Coast". Here in Mammoth Lakes we have a free shuttle bus service that operates in the winter to encourage people to park their private vehicles. It is great.
